I've given you quantities for dumplings for soup or to use these as a side dish.
| For Soup | For Side Dish |
| 1 cup milk | 1 1/2 cups milk |
| 2 eggs | 3 eggs |
| 2 cups flour | 3 cups flour |
| 1/2 tsp. salt | 3/4 tsp. salt |
Put flour and salt in a bowl. Whisk together, milk and eggs. Add to the flour and mix smooth. This is a soft dough. Put through spaetzle maker over boiling water. A large holed colander may work also. Cook for 3-5 minutes and drain. If these are to be used as a side dish~~~~ Drain well, when done. In a fry pan put 3 Tbs. butter. Add spaetzles and sauté just until they are coated with butter and heated through. Garnish with a little fresh minced parsley.
